== Appearance ==
Torbie has an insectoid physique, bearing a strong resemblance to [[Cell|Perfect Cell]]. His exoskeleton is reddish, and he possesses two large wings on his back. His head shape slightly resembles Darth Vader's helmet, though it could also be interpreted as the inverse of Cell's head structure.

== Personality ==
Torbie approaches his battles with seriousness and dedication, showing respect for the competition. However, his focused demeanor can be disrupted by unexpected events, such as [[Tapkar]] surrendering mid-match after exhausting himself, leaving Torbie visibly bewildered.

== Biography ==

=== Dragon Ball Z – Majin Buu Saga ===
Torbie competes in the Other World Tournament, where he first faces Tapkar. His opponent's excessive energy expenditure from running around the arena results in Tapkar forfeiting, granting Torbie victory by default.

In the finals, Torbie battles [[Pikkon]] but is quickly defeated and carried out of the ring by medics. Later in the series, Torbie makes brief appearances, including during [[Majin Buu|Kid Buu]]'s attack on [[Grand Kai]]'s Planet.

== Dragon Ball GT – Shadow Dragon Saga ==
Torbie is seen training under South Kai when [[Goku (Dragon Ball GT)|Goku]] requests energy from across the universe to form the Super Ultra Spirit Bomb and defeat [[Syn Shenron|Omega Shenron]].

== Trivia ==

* Torbie’s name is inspired by his insectoid appearance.
* His head resembles [[Darth Vader]]'s helmet but may also be designed as the inverse of Cell's head shape, as both share a similar build.
* Both Torbie and Cell are voiced by Dameon Clarke in the Funimation dub of ''Dragon Ball Z''.
* [[Za Priccio]] from ''Dragon Ball Super'' bears a resemblance to Torbie and Cell. Like Torbie, Za Priccio is a minor tournament fighter originating from a distant location unknown to the main cast.
